METAMORPHOSIS OF SELF
METAMORPHOSIS OF SELF
In a world of darkness and shadows deep,
A creature lies within a chrysalis asleep,
Silent and still, a soul encased,
Awaiting the moment it will be embraced.4
Within the depths, a transformation takes hold,
Starting as a whisper, timid and bold,
Cell by cell, it begins to reshape,
As a striking figure starts to take shape.8
The journey of growth, a wondrous sight,
As the chrysalis cracks, opening to the light,
Emerging slowly, with uncertain grace.
As the figure steps forth, it reveals its form.¹²
A newfound strength, like wings unfurled,
Carrying the spirit, it begins to soar the world,
No longer the caged soul, trapped within,
But a vibrant being, ready to begin.¹6
With each step taken & self-realisation, it'll bloom,
A sense of purpose, breaking through the gloom,
An inner beauty, once hidden away,
Now shines brightly, brightening each day.²°
The metamorphosis complete, a stunning sight,
A symbol of resilience, courage, and might,
For within every chrysalis, a transformation lies,
And the figure that emerges never truly dies.²4
So, let us embrace our own journey of growth,
Embracing the struggles, the changes that betroth,
For within us all lies a striking figure unseen,
Waiting to emerge and to fulfill a dream.²8
